easy to use. it's the ultimate combination of speed, small size, and low-cost printing. >>> welcome back to "the ed show." let's play a game of guess the mega donor. our mystery donor said the following in a recent interview. "i'm pro-choice, abortion shouldn't be brought up as a political issue. i'm pro-dream act. i'm in favor of a socialized-like health care." logically you would assume a mystery donor would be somebody that would give their money to the obama campaign. well, we'd be wrong on that. our pro-choice dream acting supporting fan of socialized health care, mystery mega donor is none other than billionaire casino mogul sheldon adelson. that's right, you remember that guy. the man who shelled out nearly $150 million on republicans during the 2012 elections. in an interview with "the wall street journal," adelson admits he's basically a social liberal, a social liberal who has vowed to double down on his donations to republican campaigns, obviously unphased by his sweeping losses on elec

what does that tell us? >> well, it tells us that he probably wants to keep this program in place for another year or two years. i think goldman sachs estimates that this will be in place until the first quarter of 2016 because that's how long it will take for the unemployment rate to reach 6.5%. now that's good news, again, if you're borrowing money. but if you're a saver, ed, that is not good news, because interest rates are going to come down, and you're not going get anything on your savings. >> so what do you think prompted this? possibly more filibusters? more stagnant movement on job creation by either side of the aisle? or was it just these fiscal cliff negotiations that are going on right now? the inability to make a deal? >> it's the do-nothing congress, their inability to make this deal. the best thing for the economy would be to make a deal and get off the fiscal edge, right. but if they're not going to be able to do that, then bernanke is smart. and again, it's unprecedented for him to do that.
